We are not favorites; the favorite is still "Bavaria." Alonso

Xabi Alonso does not consider "Bayer" a contender for the championship.

The Spanish specialist answered that, according to experts, the Leverkusen club is the favorite for the title this season.

"I don't care what the experts say. We are not favorites. "Bavaria" is still the favorite.

We want to play well and start the season well. Our problem is good mood, good ideas, and good thinking. Let's see where it leads.

Our goal is to stay in the first four. It is realistic. We have a good squad, and we must move from game to game," said Bayer's head coach, Xabi Alonso.

Last season, "Bayer" became the champion of Germany for the first time in history, surpassing "Stuttgart" by 17 points and "Bavaria" by 18 points.
